Have a 1999 Elite Standard, 6868, orange to red edge sunburst, reminds me of a Cherry Sunburst Gibson Les Paul. None of the Ovation Company website's colors are an exact match. Closest match is the flame sunburst but mine has no flame. Any ideas what "official" color it might be?

From what you describe it is either the New England Burst (like the Elite I had below) or the Red Tear Drop.


Or, you can look on Jerome's Ovation Color Page Here" target="_blank" title="http://www.ovationtribute.com/Ovation%20&%20Adamas%20Colors/Ovation%20Colors/Ovation%27s%20Colors.html]Here">http://www.ovationtribute.com/Ovation%20&%20Adamas%20Colors/Ovation...

Forget it. I tried to put the link in 3 times and it didn't work. Just paste this into your browser bar.

Oh, sure, I do the link thing and it doesn't work. I just type in the address and the board converts it to a link. :mad: :confused:

The New England Burst or the Red Tear Drop were my first guesses, but on the Ovation website, the Vintage Flame is the closest, but mine has no flame. The orange center on mine is more faded than a new England Burst. I wonder if I contact Ovation with the serial number can they i.d. the exact color. Fender can do that, and they have a 1-800 number to boot! Found out my Candy Apple Blue Strat was actually Ocean Turquoise.
